If he wasn’t a piece of shit, he would never have landed himself in this situation in the first place. This is why Howard Hughes is lucky his heyday was before social media.

Boomers are sociopaths.

High Rise is an assured case of "So bad and blunt, it comes out the other end and is amazing." Netflix is weird because they release stuff that becomes honest to God mainstream hits in a way that's virtually impossible for other anime...while having tons of other stuff on the service that's ignored or otherwise there to fill time. It's part of why I find their adaptations interesting, because of the attention the successful ones do get. That and the complete lack of any censorship outside the self-practiced stuff from the studio itself. You just have to wade through a lot of junk in the interim. Edgerunners had CD Project Red paying for it, and the dub cast getting Gus to do Faraday. No clue about Kotaro or Komi--san, and I like Komi-san.

I'm seeing ads for the cruise lines all over football, but even before the pandemic there was something off about the idea.

Highlights!

He’s doing the Q3 conference call right now. I’ll give out the highlights when done.

Yes, that is the same Adam from Adam Ruins Everything. And yes, he blames Zaslav and his fiscal chainsaw.

This was inevitable following those accusations. Tiffany Haddish is for all intents and purposes radioactive.

Nutritional value of a Grande Mocha Frappuccino - 370 calories and presumably enough caffeine and sugar to get you through your afternoon of doing…whatever it is you do. Value of blue check mark - 0 calories.

The local papers are trying to make this seem competitive and Zeldin has been surprisingly good at drumming up support (he lost two prior elections before winning a House seat) but the polls all show Hochul comfortably ahead. New York hates its current rank and file like that fucknut Eric Adams, but we’ll vote for them over GOP 8 times out of 10 unless the GOP member is a moderate, something increasingly rare with them.

Lionsgate apparently still has the Naruto rights. They even had a director (dude behind The Greatest Showman), but I bet the contract has long expired.

Chainsaw Man 2 - The most horny on main lead in a shounen since Meliodas.

This is a temporary injunction, not a decision on the merit. It’s the usual loophole BS.

https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2022/11/1/7374403/ Continued heavy losses for Russian forces as winter approaches. Everyone is wondering what the breaking point is.

It's almost like Twitter was a bad investment.

Because we all figured the guy who ran Tesla had at least some idea of how to run a business. We clearly overestimated him.

I'm more or less showing my displeasure at the need to make a live-action Your Name. How about give the actual Your Name a wider release, or some streaming play?

Lottery is $1 billion tonight, so I’m dusting this off for funsies. To be fair, you don’t see a lot of that money since Uncle Sam wants his share first. This website breaks down what’s owed by state, as well as how much one gets if they choose installments vs a cash pay out. https://www.usamega.com/powerball/jackpot

People have been pointing out odds are good Zaslav killed any attempt at making Pibby a series because it uses recognizable IP.

…He does realize that by being the sole head, he’s also the sole target for legal action, right?

This is a literal case of the mouth writing a check he couldn’t cash.
